"The system arrived very quickly, only a day after placing the order. Of course, I live in San Diego where the manufacturer resides. The system arrived well packaged, but the muffler had no hangers installed on it, like the OEM. A call to JBA confirmed that they had failed to manufacture it properly, which led to my decision to travel 40 miles round trip to their facility for a swap. They were very apologetic. Returning home I continued my install,only to find that the headpipe flange had holes that were too small for the OEM bolts to go through. Another call, another trip, and I finally had all the right parts. The install was easy and took about 45 minutes. However, removing the old system previously was a pain and took about an hour. The finished installation sounds good and looks good. The product is a good one and the only complaint I had was the improper parts mixup. Fortunately JBA was very cooperative; they just need to get a handle on their quality control."

"I like the exhaust very much. Followed instructions, which were easy to follow. Good quality of tubing and muffler. Fit very well on my 2001 Ford F-150 crew Cab. The only concern I have with this heavy duty exhaust is the small puny clamps that come with the package. The clamps need to be heavier in quality to actually tighten the joints of pipe."

"It was harder taking the stock exhaust off than it was to install the JBA system. From start to finish in my driveway with hand tools and a creeper was 1 hour 15 minutes. Could've figured it out without an instruction sheet. The exhaust sounds GREAT, not too loud...just right."

"THIS IS MY SECOND JBA EXHAUST, THE FIRST WAS ON A 2004 NISSAN TITAN, IT WAS A ALUMINIZED SYSTEM ( STAINLESS WASN'T AVAILABLE FOR THE TRUCK THEN. SOUNDE AND PERFORMED GREAT ON THE TRUCK. THE SECOND SYSTEM IS FOR MY '07 RAM. I LIKE THAT THE WHOLE SYSTEM IS STAINLESS NOW. INSTALATION ON BOTH TRUCKS WENT GREAT, I HAD MY OLD EXHAUST OFF AND THE NEW ONE ON IN ABOUT AN HOUR AT HOME IN MY GARAGE. THE SOUND IS GREAT, NOT TOO LOUD ESPECIALLY WHEN CRUISING,BUT GREAT SOUNDING WHEN YOU GET ON IT; AND OF COURSE WHEN YOU ARE PULLING A HILL OR UNDER A BRIDGE, ETC.... THE ONE THING I DID NOTICE ON A TRUCK WITH MDS IS IT SOUNDS BETTER WHEN CRUISING IN TOWN AT LOWER SPEEDS IF YOU PUT THE TRANNY IN TOW OR O.D. OFF, THAT SEEMS TO KEEP IT OUT OF FIFTH GEAR AND DROPPING THE 4 CYLINDERS AT SUCH A LOW RPM. WHEN THIS HAPPENS IT SOUNDS A LITTLE DIFFERENT, BUT THAT WILL BE WITH ANY AFTERMARKET EXHAUST. OVERALL GREAT PRODUCT AND GREAT SERVICE FROM AUTO ANYTHING."

"The exhaust is somewhat of a pain in the ass to hold in place to start the clamps a couple extra sets of hands definitely helps on the install the kit fits very nice and everything needed was included though i would like to say that the clamps are rather weak and had to replace them with a heavier duty clamp to get the fittings tight enough to trust. Would consider welding but ill wait and see what happens overall a very good buy at the price for a stainless system that includes everything would recommend to anybody with some mechanical knowledge that is going to do it themselves. Two guys from my work have already ordered their systems through jba dealers localy."

"The muffler is not the brushed stainless can they used to be for the 94+ RAM's. The muffler on the 06 versions are made by a 3rd party vendor and is an unfinished stainless steel. But it isn't visible when installed, and it still IS stainless, so longevity shouldn't be an issue. Still, the system sounds excellent. And the the muffler is only part of the equation for a good cat-back system. Power is ok for the money, but I haven't tried other manufacturers to compare. It meets my need perfectly. Still don't have enough miles to determine fuel economy."

JBA cat-back, 2005 Pontiac GTO

"The sound of the JBA cat-back for my '05 Pontiac GTO is exactly what I was after: something that was slightly louder than stock, but not so loud as to interfere with longer trips. The sound is perfect for a muscle car: deep and aggressive. I had a shop install it. The only issue was that the passenger side exhaust hangers at the tips had to be moved 1" to keep the new pipes from sliding off. The tips look fantastic, though I wished they were a little deeper (going under the bumper more). The system is all stainless steel, and the overall quality of the system is top-notch. Add all of this to a very low price, and JBA is a hands-down winner. Well done."

"Of course the installation didn't go as planned. Not a great exhaust for a regular cab. You would be way better off to have a shop put it on. Sound is awesome. Not too loud but you know i'm around. Still has the drone at about 70mph. There is no getting away from that. You get used to it. For the price difference it is worth it but if i had to do it again i would have a shop put it on."

"Great instructions. Great fit. It looks Great. 95 jeep Wrangler, I took out the back window today, and i'm getting too many fumes inside the Jeep. The new pipe is shorter than the stock one. The stock is also turned down. I think I'm going to have to put another end on it, witch is a shame because the end on it now looks great. What I got was not what was in the picture. But that doesn't matter. What I got had the exact configuration as stock."

"I had my JBA exhaust intalled yesterday at a local shop ($60) and the shop guys were inpressed with the quality and ease of installation of this product. Sound is just what I wanted - not too much louder than stock, but noticeable. So far I'm very happy with it! There may be more expensive exhausts with a few more bells and whistles, but I found JBA to be the best value."

"Quality and price of this system can't be beat. Installation was too easy. Even though JBA recommends professional installation, anyone with one brain cell and a basic tool kit can do it. Gas milage improvements are yet to be seen, but power and sound are much improved. Doesn't look too bad either! While I'm at it, AA is the best on price, shipping times, and how can you beat FREE shipping. I'll be looking at headers next."

"What a great sound and it fits well with my Rubicon Express long arm lift. Not many kits will work with this lift. Mild at idle and really comes to life as you pour the throttle to it. As far as looks go, the polished tip looks better than any of the bolt on tips if you are into that."
